The stars of Georgia Championship Wrestling are featured in this 1982 segment on Entertainment Tonight. Features Roddy Piper, Don Muraco, Ole Anderson, Stan Hansen, Gordon Solie and others.
Georgia Championship Wrestling March 13, 1982. Roddy Piper's confrontation with Bob Armstrong leads to Tommy Rich goading Piper into a match at the Omni, as manager Gary Hart tries to restrain him. Classic Gordon Solie on the bump out to commercial.
Roddy Piper welcomes the Brisco Borthers back to Mid-Atlantic Wrestling in March of 1982. Piper would soon injure Jerry Brisco, putting him out of action for many months, and would then feud with Jack Brisco over the Mid-Atlantic Heavyweight Championship.
Rick Steiner, dressed for Christmas, brings his dog to the ring for his match with George South. Steiner wasn't exactly thrilled with the way Jim Ross baby-sat his dog. A TBS Christmas Classic!
Florida Heavyweight Champion Paul Jones talks with Gordon Solie about his return to the Mid-Atlantic territory on Thanksgiving night 1973 in Charlotte to face ex-partner Buddy Colt.
Santa Claus cuts a promo on his big match scheduled for Christmas Eve. With Gordon Solie and the voice of Freddy Miller. Miller was especially good in this skit. This was part of a series of clips shown on a TBS Christmas special in 1982 where all of TBS and CNN original programming submitted special Christmas segments.
Back in the day when interviews weren't scripted, they could get just down right silly. Piper unintentionally triggers Don Muraco into an Ernest Angley impersonation. For some reason, I've just always loved this promo. Classic Gordon Solie - "I think we've had quite enough."
